Special this week— MATINEE SUNDAE New England | Franklin Square, MITHS B STORE , Norwlel, G, No speaker ever came here ith a story of deeper heart interest that related by Mrs. Maud Ballington’ Booth at Poll's theater ler the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. Sunday afternoon, and in the ‘evening at the Central Baptist church. Beth the theater and the chureh were packed, .and many stood to hear her wonderful story, and back of it all lrl‘ realized that there was an equally wonderful personage, mighty leader whose doings are known all over the land. There were fully 2,500 who heard here here yester- day, and all were thoroughly impress ed by her account of life’s work in the prisons of the country. Band Was Fine. At the theater there were fully a hundred stending, unable to get seats, it being the largest men's meeting the associatior ever held. Fay’s band of Providence opened the afternoon’s ex- grcises with 2evpeal beautifulqelections ng Reeves Mayeh, overture Zampa, b Hurold, and Sons of the South,” by Remick.

The trom- bone solo by Charles Butterfield waa another, fine number. For All Eternity being played, closing with a duet for trombone and co; Mrs. Booth Presented. After prayer by Rev. H. J. Wyckoft, pastor of the Secand Congregational church, General Secretary W. A. Morse of the Y. M. C, A. presented Mrs. Maud Ballington Booth to speak upon the Prisoners of This Country, referring to the difficulty he had in securing her. She was given an enthusiastic recep- tion, and sald that it was always a joy to bring a message to a meeting of this sort, but wnat a_contrast there is between this and ihe audience 1 usually address. You have the price- less gift of freedom, but those to whom I 8o often go with'a message of hopa are in prison. They pass from the pris- on chapel to their little cell, but they are not without hope. An Appeal from Prisoners. Seventeen years ago she sald it was she was in San Francisco and there she received a plea from a number of ths prisoners in state prison to speak to them. It was what I saw and road upon the faces of that audience which made me give up my life # the pris- oners of this country. It was not the walls, the guards, the stripes of their dress that brought to me the condition of the prisoners, but it was the utter despair, hopelessness and misery warit- ten on’those faces. One of the most hopeless and forgotten classes are those found in the prisons, and there are 100,000 of them. I realized there was only one way of reaching them, and that was by carry- ing them out beyond the stern wails and make them forget the present with_thélr bondage and the future with the doom of uncertainty. I told them stonies which had touched my own soul and made a message echo through those walls, so that like the poor beg- gar on the cross beside the Saviour they might cry out “O Lord, remember me,” and hear the Master's answer, “This day shall thou be with me in Paradise.” Gave Her Life to the Work. As I passed out from that meeting I registered a vow that if God would open the doors I would give my life to those prisoners. The door was open- ed, and since then I have traveled from one end of the country to the other, visiting the prisoners. If I had ever been tempted to-think that the day of miracles wcs passed or that the Bible was for olden times, I have found out different. 1 have.seen men rise up and work out their salvation, new hope eoms to be i blessing <where once was no hope. After studying the hearts of | those behind prison wells, I believe un- | shakably, said Mrs. Booth, in two truths—power divine and redeemability of human nature. Always a Ray of Hope. I believe that it makes no difference how low a man has fallen, there re- mains a grain of gold that can be found. 1 have mot been disap-ointed | and have brought harmony from dis- cord and happiness out of hopelessness. There were many who thought I was | throwing my life away, giving it to the wreckage of humanity, and that it| would be better to give it to the youns, the colleges and similar work, and thereby do a bigger work. BEQUESTS MADE TO LOCAL INSTITUTIONS. Many Public Gifts by Miss Mary L. Huntington. * By the will of Miss Mary L. Hunt- ington, of which F. L. Leavens is ex- ecutor, and of whoss estate W. R.

It is also the work of “the boys,’ as she termeq the prisoners. s Prison League Started. She related how a certain humber in Sing Sing had tdken their stand for the better and asked her to organise them, feeling that in union there wes strength, and the Volunteers of the Pris:n e was started 16 years ago. Over fifty joined and received the white button Wwith_the blue star, the motto being Look Up and Hope. Since then over 70,000 have been enrolled in the prisons of the country, and they have become earnest, practical and faithful Christians. Theorists can talk and say that once a convict always a convict, but Christians dare not. There is no fetter which can bind a man's soul in opposition to God. Work at Two Homes. She told of the establishment of two homes for those who have been dis- charged from prison, and there have been over 8,000 who have gone to them, and the greater number of those have become good citizens, taken positions of trust, and become & benefit to man- kind. Roalizing that their prison life was the transformation from darkness to light, one of her pleasantest experi- ences was that the very men pointed out as the most desperato and hope: less criminals have responded most quickly and shown the effect in after life. She told of the man who was considersd the most dangerous of all writing her and she giving him @ chance to tdlk with her. She encour- aged him to think that there was hope for him, and he at once was a changed man. Leaving prison, he went to their home and lived as a Christian and his semployers later spoke of his faithful- ness to his work and his uprightness. He learned a trade and in three years became a foreman at ekilled labor. There was & change In his appearance. He was hopeful, happy and showad the strength and courage of manhood. Others profited by his change and said: If he can be straight there is hope for every man. The message of new. hope is what tells. Do we reaiize,the ever widening circle of our influenée? Many never had the touch of a Christian mother's hand, but if they can come forth and work for God what an influ- ence is your life and mine, She also reférred to the work that is being done for the families of those who are in prison, and closed her ad- mirable talk with an appeal to all to remember “her boys” and speak & good word for them and their work. She was loudly applauded at the close, The benediction was given by Rev. C. H. Ricketts, after which tivo other selec- iions were given by the band, which also won loud applause. The collec- tion amounted to about $100. At Central Baptist Church. The Central Baptist church was packed in the evening so that it was necessary to open the annex. Her story of the great work she is engaged in was told to this audience in a similar vein and made a profound impres- sion. At the close many enrolled their names in the work and the collection was taken up for her work. She made particular reference in the evening to the fact that of the 8.000 who have gone to the Homes of Hope per cent. have become Christians; of the remainder. 20 per cent. have been made much better, and have done better than before, while only 5 per cent. have ever gone back to prison, and those went back be- cause of strong drink. It is he- belief that the families of the 100.000 prisoners are the ones upon whom the big suffering comes, and her organization is doing_great work for them. She believes that when the prisoners have earned the expenses of the institution wherein they are kept that all further earnings there should £0 to & fund for the care of their fam- ilies, and she referred to the state of Texas making & milllon a year off its | prison labor while the wives and chil- dren suffer and starve.
